Jean Dujardin wants to make another silent film

The French actor won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his movie 'The Artist'

London: 'The Artist' star Jean Dujardin would happily make another silent movie if it helped his chances of Hollywood success.

The French actor, who won the Academy Award for Best Actor prize for his movie 'The Artist', said he has some ideas of where he wants his career to go, reported Contactmusic.

"I'm not an American actor, I'm French and I continue in France. If I could make another silent movie in America, I would. But I'll always be a French actor in America. Nonetheless, there are a few ideas I would like to develop," Dujardin said.

The actor also said he had a lot of fun working on 'The Artist' and researched the role by watching old movies. "It was not really intellectual, and I'm not an intellectual. No, I watched a lot of movies. Douglas Fairbanks movies, Gene Kelly movies. I had fun pretending to be a movie star in 1920s," he said.
